If you would please FOR HEARING IMPAIRED could redo this but without the music or turn down the sound track? We the hearing impaired are not concerned with volume as we are in voice discrimination.

Can I knit or crochet during treatment or will it disrupt the IV?

[@ClearviewCancerInstitute]

Yes, you can absolutely knit or crochet during treatment. We have a video on our channel where we demonstrate some of the things our patients have found helpful to bring with them. If you have any questions, your care team will be more than happy to help you out!
